TurboT2VA: Fast Large-Scale Text-to-Video-Audio Generation via Score-Regularized Consistency Distillation

Joint text-to-video-audio generation produces synchronized visual and acoustic content, but the long sampling trajectories and heterogeneous multimodal computation of large models make inference prohibitively expensive. We present TurboT2VA, a distillation and inference framework for accelerating a 19B-parameter joint video-audio model. Large-scale T2VA distillation is challenged by modality-imbalanced optimization, the difficulty of continuous-time consistency training at scale, and the quality--diversity trade-off. TurboT2VA addresses these issues with per-modality normalization and a progressive curriculum comprising discrete consistency warm-up, continuous consistency refinement, and joint consistency--distribution matching. The curriculum first establishes a stable, diverse generation trajectory and only then introduces distribution-level refinement. On LTX-2, four-step distillation reduces generator latency from 50.52s to 2.51s at the standard evaluation resolution of 512×768, achieving a 20.1× speedup while maintaining strong visual quality, audio fidelity, diversity, and video-audio synchronization. We further develop an architecture-aware inference stack that combines guarded W8A8 and fused operators, padded-text compaction, and modality-aware sparse attention while preserving dense cross-modal and text-conditioning paths. Under the high-resolution deployment setting at 1024×1792, the complete stack reduces generator latency from 318.74s to 5.83s on one NVIDIA H20, achieving a 54.67× generator-only speedup.
